Well, Sas, that is a pretty bold proclamation considering your close relations with both Skillz and Ant, but I digress.
Being unable to relate with someone politically is not equivalent to being unable to otherwise have a positive relationship with them, but I digress.
Spoiler:
On the topic of relationships, you and I don't have one. Why are you calling me that? ****ing weirdo.

I'll start with the Executive Branch and detail his successes there. Perhaps Trump's greatest success is his slash of potential and current regulatory policy.-snip-
Look, I get that you want to try to defend yourself after reading my post--which was admittedly more provocative than I had intended--but I really wasn't asking for a crash course on why you like Trump, pal.
I'd rather not drag this out, so I'll just get to the point: I don't find your general sentiment that "vigorously slashing regulations is an inherently good thing" particularly moving, even if I do agree with a handful of the things you said. Regardless, I'm not really interested in condemning you for wanting to vote against a shitty candidate like Hillary either; I spoke somewhat thoughtlessly before. You can disregard it, if you'd like.

I may have misconstrued what you meant. I thought this quote, "I don't think I can relate well with anyone who would still vote for Trump a year into this trainwreck of a presidency", meant that you can't forge a relationship with someone who would support Trump.(You have been talking political my bad.) And LOL to the Sas thing I have just heard you referred to by that name so many times, I just naturally typed it.

Yea my post went on far longer than expected. That's on me. Anyway, this was way more serious then it should have been.
My views go all over the place but I'm generally to the left side of things. I don't see the point in taking one ideology as I believe every situation is different and must be approached in its own way. Blanket beliefs are stupid imo and get people nowhere. I vote for Labour (I'm in the UK) because I despise the Tories and Labour are the only party capable of beating them. I'm not on Labour's side on every issue, far from it, but with the absence of a decent Conservative party to consider, Labour is the only choice for me.
Originally posted by ScribbleLike Scribble I vote Labour, I am a lifelong Labour voter despite the progressive leanings of the party in the last 25 years, I am a glad Nu Labour has gone and I look forward to a return to the issues that matter and are defined by a trade union-backed Socialist workers party. Jobs, pay, workers rights and the welfare state. Whilst I don't live in the UK anymore and probably never will. The future matters to me.

I was a fan a couple years ago, but after taking statistics I became more aware of how he manipulated data for his benefit.
I don't think everything that he says is wrong but he will just occasionally say make really dumb and cringey arguments and then pontificate with a long rant where he pretends that he's a master philosiphizer.
Ex: someone called in asking about common AI safety concerns and Stefan just started ranting about how the free market would solve the issue because corporations wouldn't want to make unsafe AI or they'd lose business. ???
